Looking back on life all I saw was a mess of hate and lies
Watched all the memories from the veil of reliving eyes
Grew up cold, hard as a nail, no love from either one of em'
Who needs a family when all you got are fake fucking friends

I'm trying

Lived in a hole of a home with no room for friendship
Just left to deal with everything and all the shit
Dealing drugs out of my living room
Sealed silence with cold recession, a flavor of doom

I'm trying
I'm trying
I'm trying
I tried
I rose above

Dad he could really give a fuck less about me
Just showed up one day in the blue to arrest the ones I loved
They didn't love me back, they only wanted more stacks
Never wanted to live anymore escape the hell to settle the score

I'm trying
I'm trying
I'm trying
I tried
I rose above
